The M&E entered the diesel era on April 28, 1952 when its steam engines were replaced with a brand-new new diesel, S4-model No. 14, that had been manufactured by the American Locomotive Company (ALCO). The last steamers, Nos. 10, 11 and 12, were stored in the enginehouse at Morristown where they sadly gathered dust until they were finally scrapped in October 1955. RMT-92361 as M&E #14 is realistically painted in the bright red scheme with yellow/white lettering and logo. Also available will be a matching M&E caboose as RMT-96961 (see CABOOSE section to order). |
